At Chinook, innovation is the driving force.
Chinook’s Triple Clamp Boom Head
and unidirectional pre-preg torsion strips are features that make
our 2005 booms stiffer, stronger, and more user-friendly than any other
carbon boom. Other features include external locking pin collars to
eliminate twist, a unique clew block for fixed or in-flight adjustable
outhauls, and an extra generous extension range.
The Formula boom
has a wide tailpiece and fairleads for inflight outhaul systems.
All
bends have been modified to keep up with modern sail design.
